I was dumped while cultivating immortality in my later years, and the system only came to me after I

"Beat him! Beat him hard! If he dies, it's on me."

Outside Dayu City.

A man who looked like a butler, laughing maniacally, led a group of his men in beating a young man who looked like a beggar.

No one among the passersby dared to step forward to help; they were as if they had seen a ghost, and they kept their distance as far as possible.

"Who are these people?! They're so audacious!"

"Shh, keep your voice down. These are people from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. The Zhenbei Prince is one of the three great princes of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, with the cultivation of a Transcending Tribulation Heavenly Monarch. If you dare to stop him, you don't want to live."

"The people from the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion are indeed unreasonable."

"Don't even mention hitting someone, killing someone is as easy as crushing an ant."

"So what if they're arrogant? So what if they're unruly? They have the power."

"However, this beggar seems to have come to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to claim kinship, saying he is the son of the Zhenbei Prince, but he is not recognized by the Zhenbei Prince and was even kicked out. It seems like they are going to kill him."

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have encountered Xie Wuji, the chosen one of destiny. His destiny value is 88. He is the protagonist's chosen one of destiny.]

Cultivation level: None.

[Age: 18. 】

[Background: Eighteen years ago, the Prince of Zhenbei was ambushed and seriously injured. He was rescued by Xie Wuji's mother, an ordinary village woman, but she was quite beautiful. During the treatment, the Prince of Zhenbei couldn't help himself and violated her. Afterwards, he left the village and returned to Dayu City.]

[He forgot about the village woman from then on, but after a night of passion with the Prince of Zhenbei, she became pregnant; this woman was Xie Wuji.]

[A month ago, this village woman died. Before she died, she told Xie Wuji this secret, asking him to come to Dayu City to recognize his relative. However, before he could even meet the Prince of Zhenbei, he met the Princess of Zhenbei first. Upon learning that the Prince of Zhenbei actually had an illegitimate child, she flew into a rage, drove him out, and even had him banished from Dayu City.]

Xie Wuji was determined to see his father. Regardless of whether the Prince of Zhenbei acknowledged him or not, he only wanted to get an answer from the Prince himself. He refused to leave, which enraged the Princess of Zhenbei. She ordered her men to drive him away at all costs, or else kill him if he refused to leave.

The steward received orders to expel Xie Wuji from Dayu City, but Xie Wuji still wanted to return. Enraged, the steward prepared to kill him.

[Outcome: Just as Xie Wuji was about to be killed, a Mahayana Celestial Elder from the Five Elements Holy Land happened to pass by and rescued him. Upon examining his aptitude, he discovered that Xie Wuji possessed an innate Holy Body, which astonished him greatly. The Elder then decided to take him as a disciple. From then on, Xie Wuji's rise was meteoric. Hundreds of years later, he met the King of Zhenbei in a different guise. Through numerous fortuitous encounters, Xie Wuji reached the Mahayana Celestial Realm in just a few hundred years.]

[The host has two choices: First, rescue them, guide their cultivation, or take them as a disciple, for which you will receive a system reward; second, kill them directly.]

Chu Feng was speechless for a while.

"System, can I save him first before killing him?"

When did this dog system become so benevolent?

Aren't the chosen ones meant to be killed?

He has a penchant for having affairs everywhere.

No, you can only choose one. The first one has a better reward.

"System, you're such a jerk."

Just as Chu Feng was cursing the system.

Surprisingly, someone stepped forward here.

"stop."

A middle-aged man, dressed simply and with a stubble beard, but with considerable cultivation, at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, should currently be in the process of entering the Divine Transformation stage.

To become a god, one must first become a mortal.

The path to becoming a god is different for everyone.

This attire, given his peak Nascent Soul cultivation level, likely signifies a complete return to his true self, embracing the life of an ordinary person.

Seeing that these wicked servants were about to beat someone to death, he naturally couldn't sit still any longer and stood up to try to stop them.

The middle-aged man quickly came to Xie Wuji, shoved away the thugs who were beating him, and helped Xie Wuji up. "Young man, are you alright?"

Xie Wuji was covered in wounds and blood. He was pulled up and shook his head, saying, "Thank you, Uncle. I'm fine."

The middle-aged man glared angrily at the butler and said, "How could you do this? This is just a child. You're going to beat him to death!"

The butler was slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the middle-aged man, then laughed, looking at him with an expression as if he were an idiot, and said, "Do you know who I am?"

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "So what?"

"Even if you are from the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion, you cannot bully the weak and disregard human life."

The steward sneered, "Don't you want to ask him what he did? He impersonated our prince's son, slandered the prince, and spread rumors about our Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. We only taught him a lesson and didn't kill him, which is already good enough. What? You want to meddle in other people's business, or do you want to die?"

The middle-aged man scoffed, "So what if I meddle in other people's business?"

"This child is only a little over ten years old."

"You just had the heart to kill people."

The steward sneered, "You, a cultivator about to reach the Nascent Soul stage, don't you understand a principle? Everyone looks out for themselves. You should know when to advance and when to retreat. Aren't you afraid I'll slap you to death?"

As the steward of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion and a confidant of the Zhenbei Princess, he possesses the cultivation level of a Nascent Soul cultivator, which is not something a middle-aged man can face.

The middle-aged man firmly stated, "Your Zhenbei Prince's Mansion cannot kill people indiscriminately."

"Hahaha."

The butler scoffed, "So what if we kill people at will?"

"Dare to meddle in the affairs of our Zhenbei Prince's Mansion? They really don't know how they're going to die."

The butler slapped the middle-aged man across the face.

boom.

The middle-aged man tried to dodge, but all he saw was a blur before his eyes, and he was sent flying backward like a scarecrow.

He slammed hard to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Since you've come to meddle in other people's business, then you might as well die."

"Go, beat them to death!"

"Yes."

Although the servants were all only at the Qi Refining stage, the middle-aged man had already been injured by the steward and was unable to move, so he could only endure the beating from these servants.

Under the relentless beating, the middle-aged man, who was already severely injured and on the verge of death, soon fell silent.

A servant reported, "Steward Yang, he is dead."

The steward waved his hand and said, "Since he's dead, then chop him up and feed him to the dogs. Anyone who dares to interfere in the affairs of our Zhenbei Prince's Mansion will have to pay the price."

A servant went out.

He drew a large knife and slashed it down at the middle-aged man.

Blood splattered everywhere, and flesh was chopped into pieces.

Just now.

A hunting dog, taller than a person, was quickly thrown out from the crowd and began to devour the flesh with gusto.

Less than a minute.

Not even a bone fragment was left.

This scene startled everyone present, who let out a cold snort and trembled with fear.

Xie Wuji collapsed to the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
